Dreams That Will Last a Lifetime

Each of these spotted wonders represents a place in the time line of my life. As I release each of them to a new home, I realize that this chapter in my life is closing. For us it has been filled with the joy of purchasing our first Jacobs to growing a sizable flock. I hold with in my heart the cherished memories of the unfolding excitement of learning how to skirt and tag a fleece, and the reality that all the excitement of this process was just removing poop and debris. I have found the richness of expanding my knowledge through professionals that shared their expertise with me to properly care for the health of God's creatures. I confess that I have detested the bitter Pennsylvania winters, only to find the delight in the miracle of birth with each of these spotted vivacious bundles. I have discovered each personality and place they hold within the flock. I have enjoyed exploring all the artistic possibilities that can be made with this lustrous fleece. I hold the reality of the years of accomplishment while breeding to perfect from the rough and wiry Jacob fleece to a hand spinners delight. I have enjoyed  the feasting and the provision of food for our table and the times of fellowship and special moments, they have provided. I will always be forever grateful to have been able to walk this path for the past ten years of my life. I have and will cherish that this time was never to long and seems cut so short. I will hold onto the found memories and will always cherish the images to bring those glorious days to the present. God has richly blessed our family as we have created, enjoyed, and cherished, dreams that will last a life time.
